The CREATE Campus was designed by architectural firm Perkins+Will for the Singapore National Research Foundation is a masterful, sprawling center for innovation and research. Spread out among three mid-rise buildings and one high-rise tower, the CREATE Campus was designed with a focus on sustainable and environmentally friendly features and contains space for collaboration and interaction between scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs.
Perkins+Will aimed to design a CREATE campus that challenged the conventional understanding of research laboratory campuses while still offering a full range of lab types, including computational science, wet biology, dry chemistry, as well as regular office space.
The CREATE campus with its emphasis on quality of life and greenery is a unique, inspiring approach to designing student life.
